REVIEW: Get Him to the Greek Finds the Sweet Spot of Rock Debauchery

In the unapologetically crude and shamelessly silly Get Him to the Greek, Jonah Hill plays a low-level record-company exec, Aaron Green, assigned to escort washed-up rock English rock star Aldous Snow (Russell Brand) from London to New York and then on to Los Angeles, where this petulant, hard-living has-been will ultimately appear in a big comeback concert. Along the way Aaron will have to suffer a variety of humiliations: He’ll be seduced by ambitious, voracious Vegas “entertainers” (much to the chagrin of his long-suffering doctor-in-training girlfriend, played by Elisabeth Moss, left at home); he’ll be plied with substances that turn him into a blathering, paranoid idiot; and he’ll be forced to hide baggies of narcotics in deep, dark secret places. Ah, the rock-and-roll lifestyle, source of much hilarity and debauchery.

Russell Brand Found Sex Scenes Stressful

Russell Brand admitted he found the sex scenes stressful’ in new movie Get Him To The Greek . Brand, 35, stars opposite Jonah Hill, Tom Felton and Elisabeth Moss in the new movie, which is a sequel to the 2008 flick Forgetting Sarah Marshall. He revealed the worst parts of filming the new movie were getting set on fire and the cringeworthy sex scenes. “I got set on fire once. There’s a bit in the movie where I do a concert, and there’s a wall of sparks raining down from the heavens. And it caught me on fire. I stood in the wrong place; I caught on fire for a little. That was a bad bit. And also sex scenes. They’re actually sort of stressful. Not like actual sex – not as I know it.” Elaborating on the sex scenes and in particular the threesome, he said: “Oh, it was really awkward and difficult. Because sex, when it’s done properly, is about creating a wonderful atmosphere of intimacy, escape and adventure. Sex scenes are about hesitant, angular, choreographed moves. And this is a comedy sex scene as well, so it goes on for ages, and you’re standing with no pants, hunched over someone. You’re aware of each other’s breath mingling but without the baseline of lust pounding rhythmically through the act. It’s awful.”
